Channel Adaptive Receiver Test-Bed Software-Controlled Hardware for Studying Underwater Acoustic Communication Receivers Uses an Adaptive Filter and can Emulate other Adaptive Systems.

Abstract

This document describes a software-controlled experimental test-bed designed primarily to implement a receiver for underwater acoustic communications. It is also useful in evaluating the feasibility of incorporating adaptive filtering in various other signal processing systems. A least-mean-square filter provides the major source of processing; a minicomputer and peripheral devices are used for the transfer, storage, input, and output of data. Concurrent Pascal is used to implement a flexible user-specified real-time operating system. (Author)
